Job Description

We have a video game trailer we're creating for internet, trade shows, and possibly in store distribution. It will be around 2 minutes long and then cut down to a :30 and :15 pre-roll video for the internet. Should be way less than an hour to record it. We have $600 and we're hoping to find a VO narrator to fit the character description below. Non Union project. We'd love to receive some auditions of the sides below for the client to approve. Getting these by 6pm tomorrow (August 17) would be very helpful.

Character Profile:

Leaning more towards a middle age male voice (definitely preferred). An example that could work: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/going-gold-clash-of-the/701277#.TkrH7evjhQw.urlcapt

A middle age british female voice could work too, if it's similar to this example: http://youtu.be/MvhwWXF-LfU

Character Description:

At first, the tone should be as grim as the setting. Take the words as seriously as possible without going into melodrama. But once the twist is revealed at the "Sometimes, you gotta take what you can get", take a 180 with the tone and flip it around to the opposite. It should be light-hearted, jokey, and a little sarcastic. This tone follows this way pretty much up to the end. However, it brings it back to sarcastically serious at "November 15th", but still tongue and cheek throughout.
